12 Days of XXXmas: Blogging To Build Links
This is not my first blog, hopefully not my last. I have blogged in the past on a few different topics, but my primary blog which I spent over 3 years building up, writing content on and publicizing was in a completely different field. What I learned while blogging in the computer industry is that well written original content will draw the most traffic and show the most positive return on time invested.
How does this translate to adult industry? It is very unlikely that an affiliate will spend the time to write custom blog posts about an affiliate programs site to generate traffic, it probably isn’t worth it. What does work, is using the content to build it’s own links. Take 1 video, per day, or per hour, and offer it for free in exchange for writing a short 300 word review of the video when done. If they write a good review, send them an invite code for the next days video, and allow them to get unlimited free porn for writing good quality reviews. Using these reviews, build a simple rss feed which contains links back to the content, and allow bots and scrappers to go hog wild with the content. A good rss feed could easily be scrapped and republished hundreds of times and every time making quality deep links back to your original content. Time invested, minimal, return potential is very large. If you look at Amazon, the reason why they have an API which allows webmasters to build tools which contain the customer reviews, product details and descriptions is because it all leads back to sales!!
The next tool is an rss to post plugin for wordpress. It is feasible that one could generate 1000’s of pages of content on a single domain or even a collection of domains all pointing back to a primary site, this offers very little value. Google will easily ignore a whole domain, or collection if they feel there are just a link farm back to a single domain. What works better, is use free adult blogging services to host the blog, and point the links back to your site. These free adult blogs while maintain more value, as there are many more inlinks pumping link juice into the domain then if you where to try this on your own. If you choose to do this on your own domain, don’t be surprised to be swings in the number of indexed pages you have in major search engines. As they adjust their algorithms, there is a high likely hood that your content may loose favor and possibly be delisted all together.
Blogging is a great way to socialize. Companies who you would never expect are blogging now, to get information out there and allow customers to contact them and act as part of a community. By building a community, where people can interact, you will have more satisfied customers and this leads to more renewals. It can also lead to connections in the industry. Making it easier to contact individuals directly, through icq, blog comments or twitter makes direct link sharing much easier. Instead of blasting an e-mail off to some support@example.com address it is possible to build up an associationg with an individual and have a repor with them prior to asking for the link swap. These real world connections are very valuable and can lead to unforseen potential down the road. Talking to an individual on twitter, even just a few back and forths might be enough for them to recommend you speak to someone else or even push some business in your direction. For some people in the industry, where you are selling a service to support mobile adult sites, maybe hosting, validation, billing, etc being trusted and having a good repuation in the industry is critical.
